Sermon
Title: Soul Power
Point
1: Possess and spread the power. Matt 10:1,7-8
- Jesus called his twelve disciples to him and gave them authority to drive out
impure spirits and to heal every disease and sickness. 7 As you go, proclaim
this message: ‘The kingdom of heaven has come near.’ 8 Heal the sick, raise the
dead, cleanse those who have leprosy, drive out demons. Freely you have
received; freely give.
Point
2: Don't get caught up in your personal baggage Matt 10:9-10 - 9 “Do not get any gold
or silver or copper to take with you in your belts— 10 no bag for the journey
or extra shirt or sandals or a staff, for the worker is worth his keep.
Point
3: Don't take rejection personal Matt 10:14 - 14 If anyone will not welcome
you or listen to your words, leave that home or town and shake the dust off
your feet. Luke 10: 16 “Whoever
listens to you listens to me; whoever rejects you rejects me; but whoever
rejects me rejects him who sent me.”
Point 4: Pursue souls
with wisdom and passion – Matt 10: 16
“I am sending you out like sheep among wolves. Therefore be as shrewd as snakes
and as innocent as doves
Point 5:
Receive your prize Matt 10: 42 And
if anyone gives even a cup of cold water to one of these little ones who is my
disciple, truly I tell you, that person will certainly not lose their reward.”
